Episode 18: Bodywork with Gabrielle Brennan

As a Nurse, Midwife, and Personal Trainer operating out of Malvern East, VIC, Gabrielle’s approach is shaped by a deep concern over the prevalence of unnecessary interventions in the birth space. 

Her journey through the medical profession has led her to a profound appreciation for the innate wisdom our bodies and babies showcase in physiological birth, reinforcing her belief in our intrinsic ability to navigate our own labour.

Gabrielle offers tailored bodywork that gently prepares the external pelvic space, fostering conditions favourable for spontaneous labour and progress. 

Hear Gabrielle share her expertise on Body, Birth and Baby, and discover how she empowers women to trust in the natural birthing process.
